Because it takes three strokes of a pen to make the letter K. Three strikes for a strikeout.

That's the real answer, by the way.

Three Ks and a hood

It’s not supposed to be easy this time of year. Diamondbacks have been just as hot as the Phillies have been after sweeping LA. They’re a good team. 

They honestly didn't show us anything for two games past blowing it. Those of us who have been around since the 80s have seen trauma that  Ike can't understand 

Phillies have been the better team so far. Just have to close it out.

All things considered... this is where a lot of us thought we'd be at the end of Game 5.   I had the Phillies in 6.  Well, that only happens if the series is 3-2 after 5.

 

They COULD (and likely should) have already clinched... but, I'll take this situation, coming back to CBP up 3-2.   

Well guess who fell asleep in the 6th? So you guys are welcome!

Tough call there. 

Is Ed Kracz a millennial?  What the heck is he talking about?  More pitchers win LCS MVP than any other position.  Even just for the Phillies, Schilling won it in ‘93 and Hamels in ‘08

Happy the Phillies took care of business.  The series would be over if that 8th inning was better in Game 4.   It's all good.   Eagles Kelly Green Victory tonight.  Phillies to World Series Monday.  Philadelphia is going to be rocking the next two nights.  

Today is a day many of us have waited on for a very long time and it is finally here.  Let's hope this is the first of many many happy Kelly Green days to come over many years.

16 straight solos has to be some kind of record right?

It was mentioned on the broadcast.  It is a postseason record.

This tweet makes me feel second hand embarrassment 

The wave is the most intimidating thing fans can do to opposing players.  It plays upon our natural fear of the ocean and drowning.  Frankly, MLB should ban it for postseason games.  It's just too much.

Grew up? They were in the World Series last year.

ESP is the dumbest.

 

Well here it is. The Heavyweight Battle of the Season thus far. Jalen and Tua both Division leading teams 5-1 meeting at this level.  I guess the story writes itself.  The Eagles and Dolphins series goes back 50 years. Miami leads 9 to Eagles 6. It began with Miami jumping out to a 6-2 lead.  Then since 1993 30 years ago. The Eagles have lead the series 4-3. Their last win was in 2011.   So In Week 7 the Birds are coming off a shocking and unexpected upset from the Jets.  Now they are ready to get back on track. Meanwhile This year's Dolphins have been a historic Offensive Juggernaut.  Racking up crazy yards  and points every single game.  This is by far the hardest challenge for the Birds this year. 

With that said, just like what happen with the Jets last week. Miami had a bad loss to Their Division rival Bills.   Patriots and Chargers also took them to the wire.  In Miami they are damn near unstoppable. But on the Road, they've showed some weaknesses.  Regardless, it will not be easy and they been in every game but the Bills one.  Miami is averaging 47 PPG at home.  But on the road only 26 PPG.   Miami Defense can cause problems, but they've also given up a lot of points.  The Birds are averaging 34.5 PPG at Home.  They are giving up 29 PPG in the 2 Home Games thus far. 

I believe the Defense will bring the pressure and disrupt Miami's Offense.  I don't think they will stop them completely but they can contain them.  I expect some Big fireworks here folks. Last week was a situation of the stars aligning for the Jets after 50 years. I tip my cap to them. But the Birds are better than that, and they will show it.   We also just passed the 27th Anniversary of the Dolphins playing in Philly on 10/20/96. Ditmer had 4 TD's and the  Finals Score was 35-28 in a shootout.  That's about where I'm at but more for us, less for them.  The Eagles are also 2-0 in Primetime this year. Let's make it 3-0 on Kelly Green's Big Return.  Birds Bounce Back Big. 

 

BIRDS - 38

DOLPHINS - 24

 

JALEN - RUSH TD

AJ - TD

GOEDERT - TD

JULIO - TD

SWIFT -  RUSH TD

JAKE - FG

 

DEFENSE - INT, MULTIPLE SACKS, FUMBLE

 

So the Phillies, who were out of it on Friday, won.  Funny how things change isn't it?

Could it be another OT game  ?  Flashback to 1990.

 

 

HAPPY KELLY GREEN DAY!!!!!!!!!

Lions/Ravens at 1

Chiefs/Chargers at 4:30

Eagles/Dolphins at 8

Should be a good day of football 

@mattwill

What I know about Miami is their speed on offense. I don't know about their defense at all. I know they have some talent at every level. 

Eagles 27

Miami 24

Eagles sack Tua 7 times

Swift 100 yards

As a Uk fan , I hate late games for the eagles. 
 

we seem to have a lot this year too 

hopefully I wake up to find we won as I won’t be watching it

Meh.  People that really follow baseball and follow this team knew they were never out of it.
